cold front

A blast of the season's first frigid air was bearing down on much of the U.S., bringing the prospect of snow to parts of the country and plunging temperatures in Florida — though it may not get cold enough there for iguanas to tumble from the treetops.

Temperatures will be about 20 degrees below average for this time of year, and the wind will make it feel even colder! How long will it last?

Is this for Florida's rainy season? There are still areas dealing with a worsening drought, which could mean bad news for the comign dry months and wildfires.

Slight risk for severe storms to end the week, mainly for North Florida and the Panhandle, then the front moves south.

A Wind Chill Advisory has already been issued for portions of Central and Southern Florida, where "feels like" temperatures could fall to the upper 20s and low 30s on Saturday morning.

Ongoing research suggests Florida’s falling iguana phenomenon could happen less often as lizards adapt to the effects of climate change.

Another cold front is expected to arrive to the Sunshine State on Thursday. Strong thunderstorms could cause damage across the Panhandle, then on Friday a cold airmass should engulf most of the state.

With a cold front expected to hit the east coast this weekend, experts are reminding people of cold weather safety tips ahead of the holidays.

Temperatures could fall below freezing over the interior peninsula on Tuesday night. Below average temperatures to occur over the state through the rest of the week.

The arctic blast forecast to invade this weekend is expected to drop temperatures to the lowest point in a dozen years.

A hard freeze is expected Saturday night across North Florida and the Panhandle. In addition, lows in the 30s are likely across Central and South Florida. These frigid temperatures will be the result of yet another winter cold front traversing the Sunshine State.

A strong cold front will sweep through the Sunshine State by midweek, bringing the coldest temperatures of the season with it.
